      by Emerlyn — "He saved my life." Yoon Sang-won snorted in disbelief. His son, standing before him in perfect military form, had returned after being missing, having accomplished the impressive feat of defeating a small group of pirates. And now, he was suddenly insisting that the child he brought back shouldn’t be sent to a shelter. "You wouldn’t have died even without that child. You would have survived." "But the probability of my death would have been higher." "Lieutenant Yoon Moo-hwa, are you trying…

      by Emerlyn — As night fell, Haero quietly slipped out of the room. The atmosphere was certainly a bit looser even after roll call. There was a strange excitement in the air. Although he was unaware, being completely disinterested in school gossip, it was somewhat customary to allow newly admitted cadets one weekend to socialize and get to know each other. His senior classes had experienced the same. In any case, he cautiously snuck into room 301, where people were huddled together in the relatively spacious room.…

      by Emerlyn — The ship's broadcast warning about swells continued for over an hour. These weren't natural waves. They were massive vibrations caused by the dying seawater's thrashing, not by the moon's movement. A few ships from the squadron took turns confirming with artillery fire. Being just at the edge of the gray pit, they couldn't waste ammunition and had to return after firing only basic shells. Even after that, it took an hour and twenty minutes for things to calm down. They didn't even realize the…

      by Emerlyn — He seemed to be talking about the Naval Academy. His father had also told him to send Haero to the Naval Academy. The reason for this condition was clear. It would save face. He probably wanted to be praised for not only taking in a child from a pirate background but also raising him to become a navy officer. However, Yoon Moo-hwa  hadn't answered then. His father seemed to have mistaken his silence for agreement, but if so, that was a misunderstanding. Yoon Moo-hwa  hadn't brought Haero to…

      by Emerlyn — 'We.'  How powerful that word is. In an instant, it can make us comrades, conspirators, accomplices, or even family from lovers. That word sounded especially sweet when spoken by Yoon Moo-hwa. Apart from the incident, Haero was overwhelmed by each small expression that he would normally take for granted. "As long as it's not us, you don't need to worry. It doesn't look like you'll be losing any hair over this." Yoon Moo-hwa's smile scattered briefly and then disappeared. It was a fake smile…

      by Emerlyn — Haero glared at Yoon Moo-hwa as he wiped his mouth with a smirk. "Why are you so good at this?! Who else have you done this with?!" "Hmm. You're my first, Haero." "Liar. There was a time you came back smelling like lavender!" ‘When was that?’  Yoon Moo-hwa couldn't remember. He was the type who didn't care when he got injured even if severe scars remained on his body. He couldn't remember even more because most of the people he had been with were just one-night stands based on…

      by Emerlyn — There were villagers gathered in a circle, led by the chief and the vice-leader. The chief was chewing on a plant known to relax the nerves when chewed, making one feel languid. The captain, with a long scar on his cheek and roughly tied silver-white hair, glanced at Number 8 before turning his head away. "You're late." "Ah... well..." "No excuses needed. Go sit down." As Number 8 sat down at the edge of the circle with Number 3, the vice-leader snapped his fingers. "Now! Let's show…

      by Emerlyn — The assigned accommodation was quiet. It was natural, as all the guests would have gone to the New Year's party and not returned yet. A heavy, stiff atmosphere, completely at odds with the New Year's mood, permeated the room. Haero slammed the door shut and locked it.  Yoon Moo-hwa, who had called Haero's name a few times at the door, turned away thinking he might need some time, but at the same time, he had to struggle to erase the persistent thought of the master key in his mind. Yoon…
